This Act Has Nothing To Do With “Gun Control”
Keith Davies, Walid Shoebat Foundation — I, like others, watched in horror, disbelief, and anger as the news about the murder of 26 including 20 children in an elementary school in Newtown, CT was delivered onto my television screen. Two of my three children are in elementary school; I just cannot imagine how the parents of these deceased babies are dealing with this very heinous crime. You send your kids to school and they are dead from a mad gunman a few hours later. It is beyond my scope of thinking how anyone – no matter how disturbed – could aim a gun and kill innocent children unless it was for “jihad” (Islamists regard us infidels as mere cattle).
However, it seems our society today is breeding animals on par with “Jihadists”.
This act has nothing to do with “gun control” as guns have been around for hundreds of years and never have we seen this type of insanity used to murder people and young children until relatively recently. This is a societal values issue, a responsibility issue, and a moral issue.
As our society continues to abandon God, to believe in all the things that He commands us to avoid, we deny his rules and regulations.
An increasing number of people cannot differentiate between good and evil. As a result, all that’s needed for an insane, morally bankrupt culture to thrive is for people to be brought up on and fed a steady diet of lower moral standards, coupled with a low-level of education, which leads to these unfathomable crimes.
As a society, we now believe in abortion on demand, gay marriage, and legalized pot smoking. There is rampant corruption in politics, in the church, and in business, all of which I have witnessed firsthand – with great frustration – in my dealings. Our society believes in killing the unborn and calling it “pro-choice”. I know from reading the Bible that God punishes us in the same way we sin. There is no shock from about 50% of the population that over a million unborn babies are killed each year in America. Yet, the whole nation will be shocked at the senseless and hideous slaughter of 20 children of kindergarten age. While this shock is warranted, the lesson of the bible is that we as a nation will continue to be punished the same as we sin.
Maybe, if as a country, we returned to honoring the commandments God provided, less of these crimes would occur.
In addition to praying intently for the families of the victims of these terrible shootings, we should also repent as a nation for how we have treated so many millions of babies just a few years younger than the ones massacred at Sandy Hook Elementary.
Tolerating evil as good, will only beget us more evil. » Read More

America, As A Nation, Has Turned Her Back on Jesus and His Teachings...
Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment: But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment. ~ Jesus, Matthew 5:21-22
Biography of Walid Shoebat
Former Muslim Brotherhood Member Now Peace Activist
For the record, my name is Walid Shoebat. I used to be a radicalized Muslim willing to die for the cause of Jihad until I converted to Christianity in 1994. As a member of the PLO I was involved in terror activity, and was imprisoned in Jerusalem for three weeks. In prison, I was recruited to plant a bomb in Bethlehem as a result of which, thank God, no one was injured. My mother was an American and my father a Palestinian Arab. My parents sent me in 1978 to the United States to study at Loop College in Chicago Illinois. There I was recruited at a hotel “Terror Conference” by Jamal Said, a founder of the IAP (Islamic Association of Palestine) and Imam at one of the largest mosques in Chicago. The IAP was a forerunner to today’s Hamas terror organization and also to the terror front group CAIR (Council for American Islamic relations). This was in the early 1980s when I was being trained for Jihad activities in the USA along with many other young foreigners as well as US citizens. The Imams were the prime recruiters for terrorism then as they are still today and terror conferences are held all over the USA to this day. » Read More
